Language

Just as a zipper can ruin otherwise
acceptable garb, and velcro on armor is serviceable but grating, a modern
word or phrase can spoil a great speech or scroll text. Each word has a
history, some are period and some aren't, and it's worth at least being
aware that we have options. It's not as hard as you might think to bend
your language use in a more period direction.
